Claiming benefits may not be your only option. Maurie Backman  |  The Motley Fool Show Caption Hide Caption When to start collecting Social Security checks Allworth Financial Advisors discuss when to start collecting Social Security checks to maximize benefits. Allworth Financial, Cincinnati Enquirer Claiming Social Security before full retirement age (FRA) has consequences – namely, that you'll get stuck with a lower monthly benefit for life. That's why some seniors expressly aim to wait until FRA to file for benefits to avoid that fate. But what if you're forced into early retirement? You may have every intention of working into your late 60s or early 70s, only to find yourself out of a job by age 62. At that point, you may feel you have no choice but to claim Social Security in order to pay your bills and avoid depleting your nest egg. Actua...

Mental health issues top chronic illness list, new census data shows - Sydney Morning Herald

Normal text size Larger text size Very large text size About one-third of Australians have a diagnosed long-term health condition, the nation's 2021 census reveals, with mental health issues surpassing every other chronic illness. On Tuesday the Australian Bureau of Statistics will release the first tranche of census data, showing more than 8 million people have a long-term health condition, including about 2.2 million (roughly one in 12 people) who have a diagnosed mental illness.

The census found that in a year when cal...

Can diarrhea be a symptom of the flu? - Medical News Today

Image
Diarrhea and other gastrointestinal (GI) problems are sometimes symptoms of influenza (flu), although not every person with the flu experiences them. While the flu is a common cause of respiratory illness, it only sometimes causes diarrhea. Researchers do not know why or how this may occur. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) , diarrhea during the flu is more common in children than in adults. This article looks at why influenza may cause diarrhea, stomach flu, and vomiting. It also looks at other flu symptoms and treatments. The flu virus typically infects people via a respiratory route. However, GI symptoms, including diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, sometimes occur. GI symptoms can indicate severe flu and represent a secondary infection. It is common for the flu virus to spread to the GI tract after a respiratory infection. However, researchers do not know how it is spread. Researchers suggest that a person with the flu may experience diarrhea a...

A Possible Treatment for Persistent Cough Status Post-pulmonary Carcinoid Tumor Resection - Cureus

Image
Cough is a common symptom of many underlying pathologies; sometimes, the etiology is well understood and, therefore, treatment can be applied accordingly. However, when the underlying etiology of the cough is not well understood, a nonconventional approach can sometimes be promising. In this article, a cough of unknown etiology resistant to conventional treatments seems to be suppressed with the use of acupuncture techniques. Introduction The ability to cough plays an essential role in keeping our lungs clean. Coughing allows the body to expel foreign material from our lungs as a protective factor. The cough reflex is complex, involving afferent signals from the vagus nerve and its branches and efferent signals through the phrenic nerve, vagus nerve and its branches, and more. These afferent neurons synapse in the brainstem and relay information between the cerebral cortex and other brain centers, which finally terminate as an efferent signal that produces a...

Credit: Ilana Panich-Linsman/New York Times/Redux/eyevine The Song of our Scars: The Untold Story of Pain Haider Warraich Basic (2022) As a medical student in Pakistan, Haider Warraich loved to go to the gym. One day, while bench pressing, he dropped a 90-kilogram weight on himself. His back injury ended his plans to become a surgeon and almost dashed his hopes of being a physician. But it gave him something unusual in common with his patients: an insider's view of a life lived in chronic pain. In The Song of our Scars , Warraich draws on personal and professional experiences to explore acute pain, chronic pain and the US medical system's dismal failures to address them effectively. Acute pain is caused by a specific injury, illness or other trauma. When pain persists after the underlying cause has healed, or for more than 12 weeks, it's chronic pain. Warraich, now a doctor at Brigham ...

Why stress-related illness is so hard to diagnose, and how a patient-centred playful approach can help - theconversation.com

For at least three decades, researchers have gathered evidence that chronic stress puts pressure on the body to constantly adjust itself to restore physiological stability. This process is known as allostatic load and it creates a cascade of toxic metabolic activities that cause wear and tear on the body. Allostatic load makes people vulnerable to various types of cardiac, gastrointestinal, endocrinological, immunological, neurological, metabolic and psychiatric problems. Evidence is emerging to show that psychosocial and economic stressors influence health outcomes. But neither our physicians, nor our health-care systems, have the necessary tools and methods to integrate those social and economic factors into our diagnoses or preventive care. Here is a personal example: Recently, I called my physician to report mysterious new pains. The thorough investigation and note-taking that followed would have been very useful if I had suffered a specific infection or injury, or if m...

Could Long COVID Research Lead to Breakthroughs in Understanding Fibromyalgia and CFS? - PracticalPainManagement.com

Image
Editor's Note: This is the first in a series of articles presenting crucial topics on post-COVID syndrome (or post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection [PASC]) and chronic pain syndromes. These topics are addressed, in greater detail, in the author's book, Unravelling Long COVID, by Don Goldenberg and Marc Dichter, to be released in September 2022 by Wiley Publishers. Subsequent PPM features will address chronic pain and long COVID, and the impact of long COVID clinics on pain treatment models. Current Long COVID Criteria Between 50 million and 200 million people worldwide have persistent medical symptoms long after recovering from COVID-19 infection. Termed "long COVID" by patients, and post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) by some investigators, this condition has been considered by many to be the next global public health disaster. Criteria for Defining Long COVID Although there is no uniform definition for long COVID, most working case definitions include p...

Image
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has launched clinical trials to study the effectiveness of psychedelic drugs including MDMA and psilocybin as a treatment for military veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, addiction and other serious mental health issues.
